Kevin- One small point I'd like to add is that a lot of the money fleeing MSFT will be fueling non-Windows solutions. This was not case in the old Monopoly days so a lot of the post monopoly pricing models go out the Window (sic) when it becomes fashionable to use thing like Star Office for free rather than Microsoft Office for $500. I'm sure there are a lot of other goodies in store for the computer user. I can think of a few myself if anyone would like to flee in my direction. In any case, the Window's "network effect" has made a huge amount of people wealthy. Now working in reverse it'll be a different bunch. Don't like to pile on but this is an unusual turn of events. The judge, as they say, has told us what is plain as day. Harvey
